User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3 I'm making some AJAX games, the games are shown in non-resizable popups so that they can be managed on screen separate from other tasks. If a hard crash occurs taking Firefox down whilst these popups are open, the session restore then re-opens the popups, but at the same size as the parent window, not their original sizes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to the URL provided, click the "Play Blacjax" link twice to open two popups. 2. (optional) 'Start a game' in one, get the join key, and 'join a game' in the other using that key 3. kill the Firefox process in such a manner that session restore is invoked on restart 4. Accept session restore Actual Results: Popups are respawned, but at wrong sizes. Expected Results: Popups should be restored to both their original sizes, and ideally positions on the screen
I can't get the website in question to load.
The URL provided is on a home computer, it isn't always on, but is most of the time. The code used to create the popups is: id = new Date().getTime(); r = window.open(URL, id, 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,directories=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=640,height=429,left=192,top=144');
Yep. Session restore doesn't restore window features, as far as I can see.
